I’m having surgery on 10/17 as well! I’ve been super excited in the last few months but since it’s the final countdown I’ve been a bit anxious. [emoji28]




I’ve been super excited as well. But yesterday and today I cried. Any little thing would set me off. :( I want this over with already.

I am struggling a bit. I have not been eating much at all except Jello and pudding. Everything else turns my stomach. I had major belly cramps last night and barely made it to the bathroom. I wasn't sure if it was because of my diet or that I was exposed earlier this week to a stomach virus. I came into brief contact with someone I later found out they had a 24 hour type of stomach virus. I do not want to postpone my surgery and have to do this liquid diet over again. I am hoping all will be ok by the morning tomorrow. I have to be there 5:15 am.
I am nervous about the cutting part. I had four kids without medication but I never had surgery before.
Good Luck nod Blessing for your surgery tomorrow

Hello everyone!! Hopefully everyone one had a successful surgery and recovering okay!!?? I hope soo🙏. I was in the hospital for a night, all went fine, they found a hernia to repair as well during the sleeve surgery. The first week for me was pretty rough, not gonna lie. Yesterday was first day without pain meds, today is the first day that I feel a bit better but still zero energy- like none. How is everyone doing?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!
